Default Wiring the basslink with RCA cables... HELP?

Well, I see the basslink has Front and Rear connections for rca inputs. I had no clue which to use, so i just put them both in the front part (not paying attention to the manual) Well Syf3n has the same setup as me, basically. And i noticed the guy who did his used rca splitters (Y splitters) and connected his rca cable to the front and rear sections. What do you guys think would be best? I will have pictures up in 5 minutes showing each possibly wiring config.

Does your HU only have one rca output? I put both the front and rear outputs from the HU to the basslink. The Y spitter really doesn't do much if the HU is only putting out half the bass.

well, my alpine headunit has a subwoofer rca output and 2 other rca outputs. I do not think these are front and rear though, if that was the case you wouldnt be abel to put any other amp to your speakers, the basslink would take up the whole set of outputs, right?

I just did like the Basslink instructions said and used my Alpine SUB RCA output directly to the low level inputs for the FRONT only. The bass is good. I never tried what you are saying. I would not want to use my front and rear RCA outs for the basslink because then you can't use any additional amps like you said.
